I never hit vtec I never shift above 2500 rpm
You end up driving really slow but you save lots of gas
I never go faster than 65mph, I always use c/c"

sorry for some reason the quote thing wasnt working for me so i decided to make my own lol
....anyways

wowwww so i saw this and i was like what the hell why not try this for a day cause i have to commute to college everyday which is 30 mins away so i could use the extra gas. LET ME TELL YOU i usually book it to school going like 90-100 but this time i had my windows up, set cruise control at about 65-70 and shifted at 2500 everytime. i swear to you i only used up like maybe a gallon and a half worth of gas to get there and back!!! i was pumped lol cause i'll usually waste like a quarter tank of gas everyday going to school and going to work, but work isn't far so this really really helped me save some gas. i'm driving like this a lot more often now

i'm gonna fill my car and calculate the mpg soon and post to let you guys know. but this method really does save you a ton of gas and money!!

Yea, keep doing it and give us the difference! That sounds like a boring way to drive, but if it is a notable savings, I would convert, at least sometimes!
